which doesn't seem to be even close to what was requested. How can taking pairs of input lines (without verifying that the 1st line in a pair starts with TT:) do what was requested?
Hi Don, there are unwanted spaces at the end of the lines, that is effecting the command.
I would suggest you remove the unwanted spaces and try again

is  a  text formatter.	Its input consists of the text to be out-
put, intermixed with formatting commands.  A  formatting  command
is  a  line  containing  the  control character followed by a two
character command name, and possibly one or more arguments.   The
control  character is initially . (dot).  The formatted output is
produced on standard output.  The formatting commands are  listed
below, with being a number, being a character, and being a title.

negative change from the current value.  Initial values for where
relevant, are given in parentheses.

  .ig	  Ignore input lines until a line beginning with .. is found.
  .in n   Indent n spaces from the left margin; force line break.
  .ix n   Same as .in but continue filling output on current line.
  .li n   Literal text on next n lines.  Copy to output unmodified.
